Great question!

Judaism is the mother of Christianity, Islam, and Catholicism. Their 'bibles' tell almost identical stories and base their entire faith around a messiah who is the son of a single God.

Buddism, on the other hand, arose around the same time as Islam, but is extremely different to the other religions. Buddism doesn't have a central text, and is built around philosophies rather than idols.

Buddhism is older than Christianity (In the sense that Jesus would be it's base and founder so to speak), predating about 5 centuries.
